Addiction comes in various forms.Sex addiction,drug addiction,food addiction,alcohol addiction and sleep addiction,talk addiction etc .The first step to solving these problems is for the addicts to recognize there's a problem.

Congratulations.

Ladies are mostly found of this. Me, I will not donate a dime for anyone suffering from diabetes, liver problems or any disease associated with excess intake of drinks.

We should all learn to be responsible.

Even me that burns sugar like no man's business, i don't even touch the plastic how much more drink those shit.

Like i will always say, water is the best and healthiest drink ever. If you need a healthy sweet drink, go for smoothies or naturally blended fruit juice. sad

So if them ask you "what are the sources of sugar (or glucose) to the body?" you go talk mineral abi?


It's a good source of sugar and it's important. The OP is probably those kind of people that never do manual labor or exercise in their life. If you do manual labor or exercise, you tend to lower your blood sugar in the process, so drinking soda will not have a negative effect. Also, you can't always count on complex sugars in solid meal because it takes too long to break down and achieve the same effect as soda.

Also, he subsituted water for soda, which is more dangerous than anything.

So anyone that takes 5 bottles of soft drinks a day comes down with diabetes or cancer?
Illiterate!
for real. It accumulates, especially when he lives a sedentary lifestyle. A person who is to be taking at most a bottle and not per day are those who sweat a lot in their daily activity, like artisans, drivers, builders, agberohs, but those who sit at home watching TV, office staffs mehn, the time go come them go hear am

Hurray cheesy cheesy
I think it's worth celebrating my one year anniversary away from taking soft drinks and any kind of Sugary drinks especially because I was so addicted to the extent of drinking 5 bottles of soft drink everyday. It started like a movie and before I knew it, one plastic bottle of soft drink couldn't satisfy me anymore.

From substituting water with soft drink especially during the lock down whenever I had my meal or felt dehydrated to just drinking it for fun and I loved it chilled.
Each time I finished drinking it there was this burst of energy and happiness that follows sad.
I remember a particular weekend when I didn't have any cash on me I begged the neighborhood store to give me a pack of Coca-Cola drink to take me for the weekend till workday before I paid for it.

Then towards the last quarter of the year last year, I started noticing how yellowish my urine became and it dawned on me that I needed to cut down on the intake and so my journey began. It was a tough one because I was already used to taking 5-6 pet bottles daily. But I started by reducing by 1 bottle each week and replacing it with water. By December last year I firmly decided to put an end to what had become my addiction.
Now here I am today, healthier and happier.
No matter how chilled or iced, so far it's soft drink I won't take it. Even at work, when lunch is served I always consciously change my drink for water.
Then at home, whenever the urge came I replaced it with taking fresh fruits juices and smoothies which I make myself..
Stop it now

Bros, the fellow is right.

Taking 5 bottles of soft drinks a day is hazardous to the health. Very very very bad.

It is like an invitation to diabetes.


Diabetes simply occurs when there is too much sugar than the body can use or need.
